RunGiving 5k and Fun Run will be a local run or walk that will work to provide items for the Broad Street Ministry Center's food pantry and clothing room. This ministry assists senior citizens, disabled people, and our local homeless population. Come join Run the Tangents Timing on Thanksgiving morning to give thanks through running and giving back to the community with a non-perishable food donation before the run. The food collected at the race will be donated and for each food item donated, runners will be given a raffle ticket for entry to win a prize (prize yet to be determined).
